Broken Boulder the curse of delight singing-sunlight

because AAAAHHHHHH WE NEED A NEW THREAD BEFORE BABIES

For some reason, it occurred to him to wash Samothes' scent from his fur before seeking @Delight. The quick dip in the creek was, uh, refreshing. By that he meant really cold, of course. Then he had to groom himself so he wouldn't show up a wet wreck, and wow that was fun too. The Chancellor had better buy him dinner for all this effort, he thought.
Alarian was still slightly damp when he finally went looking for his friend, but overall a lot cleaner and neater-looking than he had been lately. He felt a little better, too— less agitated, less anxious. It definitely had nothing to do with his newest friend. He snorted to himself. Friend. Anyway, uh. Damn, where was Delight?
